Does this mean I qualify for having the piss taken out of me as Im not from Manchester?? (although my old man is, hence the reason why Im a City fan)
Yes, absolutely.
Well, then that qualifies you as an arsehole. Id like to see how many games you would go to if it took more than a short bus ride.
Well since I miss very few aways (just the European away games) then quite a lot. But what has that got to do with the fact that you live miles away from Manchester and yet are crying that you dont deserve to get the piss taken? I know a Spurs fan up here who hates City fans because of the constant banter. He is also too soft to accept a bit of pisstaking. The fella is from North London and is the most passionate Yid you could ever meet and I dont think of him as any less of a Yid, but I still give out banter at every possible opportunity. I think you just need to grow a pair of bollocks and learn to laugh it off!
P.S. and yes I am an arsehole, but its nothing to do with the fact you cant stand up for yourself without having a cry when people take the piss.
I think replying with that message was 'standing up for myself' .Yeah, I really need to grow a pair so I can gob off over the internet.If you feel the need to 'give out banter' at every oppitunity, you sound like a right annoying twat to be fair. I was just stating to narrow minded people like you that not all City fans have to come from manchester and those that do travel put in alot of time and money in doing so. Not just by getting 'the £1.50 number 8 to sport city' like yaself.
How was I having a cry?? I was just trying to give you an example of what some fans do in order to get to games!! I was kind of hoping it would be food for thought for when ya sat at home with a cupper in ya hand after that 10minute walk home and the likes of myself still have a 3hour drive home.
You prob have been to away days.What were those?? Bolton,Blackburn, Wigan??? Lets see you put in a real shift week in week out.
Now I know why I havent been on here for ages....
So far this season i've been to Loftus Road, Anfield, WHL, The Emirates, Craven Cottage & Molineux.
And my point seems to have sailed way over your head, I have not said that you are any less of a fan or that you dont deserve to be at the Eastlands just because you dont support your local team, in fact I respect the fact that you make so much effort considering half the fans in our own ground cannot be arsed making a 20 min journey midweek or miss the last 10 mins as they are not allowed out after 10:30pm.
My point is that if you live in an area vastly populated by rivals then you should expect to have the piss taken, and if you have a cry about it, then expect the piss too be taken some more.
